Croma Mixer Grinder and Air Fryer Deals August 2026: Rs. 1,399 Up

Two thousand four hundred and ninety-nine rupees for 1600 watts and five preset menus, off a stated Rs. 3,000. That is a seventeen per cent badge - modest, on a claim small enough to be plausible, from the retailer's own label. Divide the price by the watts and you get Rs. 1.56 per watt, which is the number worth carrying down this page, because every listing in this aisle publishes its wattage and almost none publishes a rating anybody could use. Six people have rated this one, at 3.7.

• Price: Rs. 2,499 (stated MRP Rs. 3,000)
• Key detail: 1600W, 5 presets - Rs. 1.56 per watt
• Discount: 17% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 501
• Rating: 3.7 from only 6 Croma ratings - too few to show as a score
• Role: The cheapest cooktop we seated
• Buying logic: The floor price for a working single hob

Two thousand two hundred watts, infrared plate, three preset menus, Rs. 3,469 against a stated Rs. 5,000 - a 31 per cent badge. Everything in that sentence is repeated word for word on the next card, at a different price. Croma is running the identical product under two listings with the same stated MRP and two different selling prices, and the shopper who lands on the wrong one pays Rs. 330 more for the same hob. Neither listing carries a single rating.

• Price: Rs. 3,469 (stated MRP Rs. 5,000)
• Key detail: 2200W infrared, 3 presets - Rs. 3,469 against a stated Rs. 5,000
• Discount: 31% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 1,531
• Rating: Croma publishes no rating on this listing
• Role: The same cooktop, cheaper listing
• Buying logic: If you want this cooktop, this is the listing to open

The same 2200-watt infrared cooktop with the same three presets and the same stated Rs. 5,000, listed at Rs. 3,799 and badged 24 per cent. Set against the card above it, this is the clearest thing on the page: the badge is not measuring value, it is measuring which of two listings you happened to click. A shopper comparing percentages would find 31 and 24 and conclude the first was the better buy - and be right, but for none of the reasons the badge suggests. Both listings show no ratings at all.

• Price: Rs. 3,799 (stated MRP Rs. 5,000)
• Key detail: The identical 2200W infrared hob at Rs. 3,799 - a 24% badge
• Discount: 24% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 1,201
• Rating: Croma publishes no rating on this listing
• Role: The same cooktop, Rs. 330 dearer
• Buying logic: Included so you can see what the other listing costs

Rs. 3,999 for 2100 watts and eight power settings, off a stated Rs. 5,495 - a 27 per cent badge and a Rs. 1,496 gap. What sets this listing apart is not the price but the evidence: 143 ratings at 4.3, against a shelf where 29 of 63 listings have between one and five ratings and nineteen have none. Per watt it works out at Rs. 1.90, more than the Croma hobs above, and the extra buys you the only cooktop in this aisle that a meaningful number of buyers have actually reported on.

• Price: Rs. 3,999 (stated MRP Rs. 5,495)
• Key detail: 143 ratings at 4.3 - the largest sample in this aisle
• Discount: 27% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 1,496
• Rating: 4.3 from 143 Croma ratings
• Role: The only cooktop here with a real crowd
• Buying logic: The safe cooktop, and the only well-evidenced one

One thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine rupees for 1800 watts and eight presets is the cheapest cooktop in this read and the best price-per-watt on the page at Rs. 1.11. We are showing it with the number that goes with it: 2.6 out of 5 from fourteen ratings, the lowest average anywhere in our 63 rows. Fourteen is a small sample, but it is fourteen more than most listings here offer, and a 2.6 is a signal in a way that a 5.0 from one person is not.

• Price: Rs. 1,999 (stated MRP Rs. 3,595)
• Key detail: 2.6 from 14 ratings - the worst average we found
• Discount: 44% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 1,596
• Rating: 2.6 from only 14 Croma ratings - too few to show as a score
• Role: The lowest rating on the page
• Buying logic: The cheapest watts here, with a warning attached

Rs. 4,099 for a 2200-watt infrared plate with three presets, against a stated Rs. 7,990. That claim is Rs. 2,990 higher than the one Croma makes for its own 2200-watt infrared cooktop two cards up, and the finished price is only Rs. 300 to Rs. 630 higher. The badge is doing the work: 49 per cent against 31 and 24 for near-identical hardware. Seventeen people have rated it at 4.5, which is a better sample than most of this aisle manages, and still not a large one.

• Price: Rs. 4,099 (stated MRP Rs. 7,990)
• Key detail: Rs. 4,099 against a stated Rs. 7,990 - 49% off
• Discount: 49% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 3,891
• Rating: 4.5 from only 17 Croma ratings - too few to show as a score
• Role: The deepest badge in the aisle
• Buying logic: Only worth it if you want the Bajaj service network

Fifty-four thousand six hundred and ninety rupees, off a stated Rs. 74,990, for a sensor-touch hob with four cooking zones and 7000 watts in total. It is on this page as the ceiling and as a warning: everything else in this chapter is a portable single plate you put on a counter and unplug, and this is a fitted appliance that needs a cut-out in a stone worktop and a wired supply. The per-watt figure of Rs. 7.81 is not comparable to the others; you are buying installation and four zones, not watts.

• Price: Rs. 54,690 (stated MRP Rs. 74,990)
• Key detail: 7000W across four zones - a fitted appliance, not a portable plate
• Discount: 27% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 20,300
• Rating: Croma publishes no rating on this listing
• Role: The ceiling: a built-in four-zone hob
• Buying logic: Only for a kitchen being built or refitted

One thousand three hundred and ninety-nine rupees for a 500-watt three-jar grinder, off a stated Rs. 2,500. Seventy-eight ratings at 3.7 - the second-largest sample in this read and a fair, unglamorous score. Five hundred watts will do daily chutney, masala and batter in small quantities and will struggle with dry dal or heavy wet grinding, which is exactly what a first mixer for a small kitchen needs to do. The rest of this chapter is the price of the watts above this one.

• Price: Rs. 1,399 (stated MRP Rs. 2,500)
• Key detail: 500W, 3 jars, Rs. 1,399 - Rs. 2.80 per watt
• Discount: 44% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 1,101
• Rating: 3.7 from 78 Croma ratings
• Role: The cheapest appliance on this page
• Buying logic: A first mixer, or a second one for a small kitchen

Rs. 2,099 for 750 watts and three jars, off a stated Rs. 4,500 - a 53 per cent badge and the best-rated Croma mixer here at 4.4 from 25 ratings. Against the 500-watt model on the previous card, the step up costs Rs. 700 for 250 watts, which prices the extra power at Rs. 2.80 a watt - precisely the rate the 500-watt machine sells at overall. That consistency is the useful finding: within this house-brand ladder the watts are priced honestly and linearly.

• Price: Rs. 2,099 (stated MRP Rs. 4,500)
• Key detail: 250 extra watts for Rs. 700 over the 500W model
• Discount: 53% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 2,401
• Rating: 4.4 from 25 Croma ratings
• Role: The middle rung of the house-brand ladder
• Buying logic: The sensible default for an everyday Indian kitchen

Rs. 3,999 for 1000 watts, four jars and a copper motor, off a stated Rs. 9,000 - the biggest claim of the three Croma mixers and a 56 per cent badge. Hold on to the price rather than the badge, because the next card but two is a Philips machine with the same 1000-watt rating and four jars at Rs. 14,995. The rating here is 3.3 from three people, which is not evidence of anything; we are not attaching a pill to a sample of three, in either direction.

• Price: Rs. 3,999 (stated MRP Rs. 9,000)
• Key detail: 1000W, 4 jars, copper motor - Rs. 4.00 per watt
• Discount: 56% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 5,001
• Rating: 3.3 from only 3 Croma ratings - too few to show as a score
• Role: The top of the house-brand ladder
• Buying logic: The most jars and watts you can get here for under Rs. 4,000

Two thousand nine hundred and forty-nine rupees against a stated Rs. 3,290 - three hundred and forty-one rupees off, the smallest gap anywhere in our 63 rows. It is also the second-best-evidenced listing here: 58 ratings at 4.5, the highest average of any well-rated appliance on this page. A small claim you can believe, a real crowd, and a juicer jar on top of the usual three. Nothing about this listing is dramatic, which is the argument for it.

• Price: Rs. 2,949 (stated MRP Rs. 3,290)
• Key detail: Rs. 341 off a stated Rs. 3,290 - a 10% badge and a credible one
• Discount: 10% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 341
• Rating: 4.5 from 58 Croma ratings
• Role: The smallest badge in the read
• Buying logic: The best-evidenced mixer on the page, at a fair price

Rs. 3,394 for 750 watts and three jars, off a stated Rs. 4,895, with twelve ratings at 4.2. Philips filed seventeen listings into this read - more than any other brand, one more than Croma's fourteen - and its badges ran from 3 to 40 per cent, the most restrained range on the shelf. The Rs. 1,295 premium over the identically rated Croma buys a longer service history and a turbo motor claim, and nothing else the listing is willing to state.

• Price: Rs. 3,394 (stated MRP Rs. 4,895)
• Key detail: Rs. 3,394 for 750W - Rs. 1,295 more than Croma's 750W
• Discount: 31% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 1,501
• Rating: 4.2 from only 12 Croma ratings - too few to show as a score
• Role: A brand-name 750 at a house-brand price
• Buying logic: Pay the premium for the service network, not the watts

Fourteen thousand nine hundred and ninety-five rupees for 1000 watts and four jars with five preset modes, off a stated Rs. 19,995. The Croma machine earlier in this chapter offers the same headline wattage and the same number of jars for Rs. 3,999. What Rs. 10,996 buys is the preset programmes, the brand's motor and warranty, and nothing this listing quantifies. No rating at all is published on it. This is the most expensive mixer grinder in the read and the least evidenced.

• Price: Rs. 14,995 (stated MRP Rs. 19,995)
• Key detail: 1000W and 4 jars at Rs. 14.99 per watt - 3.7x the Croma rate
• Discount: 25% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 5,000
• Rating: Croma publishes no rating on this listing
• Role: Rs. 14,995 for the same 1000 watts
• Buying logic: Buy only if the preset programmes are the point

Rs. 9,299 for 750 watts across five jars, off a stated Rs. 13,245 - a 30 per cent badge and a Rs. 3,946 gap. Sixty-nine ratings at 4.6 is the highest average of any listing in this read with more than twenty votes. Preethi is a South Indian wet-grinding specialist and the five-jar set is aimed squarely at households that grind batter weekly rather than chutney daily. At Rs. 12.40 a watt it is expensive power; the jars and the reputation are what is being bought.

• Price: Rs. 9,299 (stated MRP Rs. 13,245)
• Key detail: Five jars including a juicer, on 69 ratings at 4.6
• Discount: 30% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 3,946
• Rating: 4.6 from 69 Croma ratings
• Role: The specialist, and 69 ratings
• Buying logic: For batter and heavy wet grinding, week in week out

Rs. 6,299 for a 1000-watt four-jar machine claiming 24,000 RPM and a stone-pounding jar, off a stated Rs. 11,975. Twenty-four thousand is the highest RPM figure any listing in this read states, and the stone-pounding jar is a genuine mechanical difference rather than a marketing word - it is built to bruise rather than slice, which is what chutney and ginger-garlic actually want. Four people have rated it, so there is no pill on this card and no crowd to appeal to.

• Price: Rs. 6,299 (stated MRP Rs. 11,975)
• Key detail: 1000W, 24000 RPM, stone-pounding jar - Rs. 6.30 per watt
• Discount: 47% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 5,676
• Rating: 5.0 from only 4 Croma ratings - too few to show as a score
• Role: A stone-pounding jar, at 47 per cent
• Buying logic: Buy for the pounding jar; ignore the badge

The largest badge in the read sits on a claim of Rs. 17,895 for a five-litre air fryer selling at Rs. 6,699 - and on a single rating of 1.0 out of 5, the only score the listing carries. One vote is not evidence and we are not attaching a rating pill to it, in either direction; a lone one-star could be a delivery complaint. But it is the whole crowd this listing has, and the contrast with the next card is the argument of this chapter.

• Price: Rs. 6,699 (stated MRP Rs. 17,895)
• Key detail: Rs. 6,699 against a stated Rs. 17,895 - 63%, the biggest on the page
• Discount: 63% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 11,196
• Rating: 1.0 from only 1 Croma ratings - too few to show as a score
• Role: The deepest badge, the thinnest evidence
• Buying logic: A big claim, a big badge, and one unhappy voter

Two hundred and seventy-four ratings at 4.6 - three times the next largest sample in this read and roughly what the whole rest of the air fryer aisle carries between them. The badge is 21 per cent, Rs. 5,499 against a stated Rs. 6,995, a gap of Rs. 1,496 that a Philips small appliance could genuinely have carried. Four point one litres suits two to three people; it will not do a whole chicken. If you want one number from this page, it is 274.

• Price: Rs. 5,499 (stated MRP Rs. 6,995)
• Key detail: 274 ratings at 4.6, on a 21% badge
• Discount: 21% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 1,496
• Rating: 4.6 from 274 Croma ratings
• Role: 274 ratings - the best-evidenced listing in the read
• Buying logic: The air fryer to buy if you want the safest bet here

Nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine rupees for twelve litres and 1800 watts, off a stated Rs. 19,995. Sixty-three ratings at 4.6 makes it the second-best-evidenced air fryer here and it matches the Philips average exactly. Twelve litres is a different machine from a four-litre basket: it is an oven with a fan, it will take a tray and a whole bird, and it will occupy a serious amount of counter. Agaro's four listings in this read all ran 42 to 56 per cent - a consistently deep band.

• Price: Rs. 9,999 (stated MRP Rs. 19,995)
• Key detail: 12L capacity at 4.6 from 63 ratings - the largest well-rated one
• Discount: 50% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 9,996
• Rating: 4.6 from 63 Croma ratings
• Role: Twelve litres, and 63 ratings
• Buying logic: For a family of four or more who will actually use the volume

Four point seven litres and 1400 watts for Rs. 4,799, off a stated Rs. 8,000. Against the Philips Spectre two cards up: six hundred millilitres more capacity, the same wattage, Rs. 700 less money - and not one rating, against the Philips's 274. That is the trade this whole page keeps offering. Croma's fourteen listings ran from 4 to 56 per cent, the widest band of any brand here, which is what a house label does when it is setting its own promotions.

• Price: Rs. 4,799 (stated MRP Rs. 8,000)
• Key detail: 4.7L at Rs. 4,799 - Rs. 700 under the Philips, 0 ratings
• Discount: 40% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 3,201
• Rating: Croma publishes no rating on this listing
• Role: The house brand undercuts again
• Buying logic: The cheap way in, if you are content to be the first reviewer

Twenty-three thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine rupees, off a stated Rs. 29,990 - a 20 per cent badge, which is small by this page's standards and normal for a brand that controls its own distribution. The machine combines steam with fan-forced heat and doubles as an oven and multi-cooker, which is a genuinely different proposition from a basket fryer. It carries no rating at all in our read, so the only thing standing behind the price is the brand.

• Price: Rs. 23,999 (stated MRP Rs. 29,990)
• Key detail: 12.5L, steam and air, 1780W - Rs. 23,999, the top of the aisle
• Discount: 20% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 5,991
• Rating: Croma publishes no rating on this listing
• Role: The most expensive fryer, and a different machine
• Buying logic: Only if it replaces an oven and a rice cooker as well

Three thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine rupees for 4.5 litres and 1200 watts, off a stated Rs. 6,290, with four ratings at 4.5 - too few for a pill. This is the floor of the air fryer aisle in our read and it is only Rs. 800 below the Croma with more capacity, and Rs. 1,500 below the Philips with 274 ratings. In a category where the cheapest and the best-evidenced machines are Rs. 1,500 apart, the case for buying at the very bottom is weaker than it looks.

• Price: Rs. 3,999 (stated MRP Rs. 6,290)
• Key detail: 4.5L at Rs. 3,999 - the entry price for the category
• Discount: 36% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 2,291
• Rating: 4.5 from only 4 Croma ratings - too few to show as a score
• Role: The cheapest fryer in the read
• Buying logic: The floor price, though the next rung up is close
